GramCracker posted:All Fernando wants to do is race and be competitive, McLaren is the most logical decision for Fernando if he wants to pursue his Triple Crown dream and still have a drive in F1. Fat chance any other team would ever let him skip a GP. Do they have an LMP car they can throw him in?

Tony Montana posted:No, I disagree. It's not incompetence so much as culture. That's another part of it, they do it their way which is often nothing like the way a UK or US team and they still get results. Part of it is a lot of what I've said here, there is so much passion and emotion and history in Ferrari there can be a problem with groupthink and sticking your neck out. Also personal culture, Italians talk to each other differently to English speakers and that would translate into how they make decisions on a raceday and sure, sometimes you see them do something that makes you scratch your head. Yeah but they were only good when they were run by an Englishman and a German driver.

Is there some rule that prevents them from putting the engine in a car and testing it? Or is it a real poo poo situation where it only fits the current McLaren and can't be used because it is a current season car or something?

Is there access to the track, a park to visit, or anything motorsport related like kart racing tracks worth visiting in the area? There's a Gille museum just north of Montreal that is pretty cool.

Alonso has a record of unlucky decision making when changing teams, which means if he leaves McLaren because they stick with the Honda engine, it will be good in 2018. If he stays, the Honda or Renault engine will be bad in 2018. Cactrot fucked around with this message at 19:18 on Aug 30, 2017 |
